RB Leipzig attacker Christopher Nkunku has been out since November with an injury, so there was a lot of excitement in seeing him back in action today, pictured by his club’s social media account jogging out to join his teammates.
He looked thrilled to be back out there – despite the frosty conditions in Germany.
You can see the footage of him joining training with his team in the clip embedded here:

Given it’s an open secret that Nkunku will be joining Chelsea in the summer, most fans are treating a little like a player out on loan now – and they will be tuning in to see how he gets on in the rest of the season.
We’re still lacking a good striker (hence us arranging to sign the France star), so it might end up being pretty painful watching him rattle them in in the Bundesliga.
Still, not long to wait now.
